Learning Style

The two learning style tests that I took were Whatismylearningstyle and The VARK Questionnaire. Under the Whatismylearningstyle Test 1, the learning styles are categorized under auditory, visual, tactile, global, analytic, or kinaesthetic styles. These learning styles divide the way different people learn and depend on certain sense, such as auditory or visual over others. On the other hand The VARK Questionnaire divides the learning styles into different strategies that are implemented by different people for learning. Some of the strategies that are listed under VARK are visual, read/write, aural, kinesthetic, and multimodal. After taking the Whatismylearningstyle learning test the ...

For the purposes of this term paper it was decided to analyze factors affecting marketing strategy of the European brand "Fairy Dragons" that manufactures souvenirs and toys. The fabulous legend about dragon's family that has magical powers and help people was formulated for the promotion of the brand. The brand name clearly relates to the main heroes of that legend - thereby the brand's mission is much broader than the mission of usual souvenir manufacturers. "Fairy Dragons" has taken on additional psychological meaning for the consumer. The brand is presented in retail places near European must sees visited by ...

The brain is the most important organ in the human body since it is the one responsible for the interpretation of senses, intelligence, controlling behavior and movement. However, most of the neuroscientists have been unable to conclusively determining the relationship between the various parts of the brain and the outward behavior. For instance, many neurosurgeons have used studies on the preferred hand in the prediction of the dominant part of the cerebral hemisphere. According to Weiten and McCann (2013), cerebral hemispheres are identical in appearance. However, they differ significantly in terms of the structure and functions. The brain lateralization ...

Skills are essentially talents or abilities that people can grow or learn, such as social skills, leadership skills and motor skills, among others. Human beings develop and enhance skills from a very early age and all through their lives. The urgency to master a specific skill depends completely on the need and period one is living. Therefore, ...

Vestibular Projections

Vestibular projections in the central nervous system consist of vestibular end organs which communicate with the brain stem and the cerebellum via the vestibular branch of the eighth cranial nerve. These nerves are also connected to the auditory fibers. Thus damage caused to these structures can cause both vestibular and auditory disturbances. The vital function of the vestibular system is to coordinate head and eye movements. The ability of the eye to stay focused on an object even while the head is moving is brought about by the vestibular system.

Vestibular Cochlear Nerve

The vestibulo cochlear nerve or the auditory nerve is ...

The results of ‘What’s your learning style quiz?’ reveal that I am 65% visual, 25% auditory and 10% Tactile.

Visual learner Being a predominantly visual learner, I like to learn by visualizing things. Colors, picture and flashcard can be of best help for a visual learner. Most people in the population are predominantly visual learners. They learn new concepts by watching, rather than by listening or touch. Good eyesight is very important for this learning style. A picture is worth a thousand words, then hours of blah, blah, blahBut I have a problem with this method, a picture can carry different meanings for different people. Thus, it is important that words accompany pictures, so that the message is ...

This script elucidates how to deliver health education on the topic sleep. It demonstrates how the health education can be delivered through visual, auditory, writing, reading, as well as kinesthetic models of learning. It will be prudent to give the definition of sleep through lecture, which represents an auditory model of learning. It explains sleep as a natural condition of resting where one closes the eye and becomes unconscious (Gilbert, Sawyer, & McNeil, 2015). It is prudent to accompany the explanation with visual aids, which helps in assisting the audience to visualize the topic. Additionally, it is significant to allow ...

Question 1:

An art is just but a human activity that is either visual, performing or an auditory artifact. Over the years, a succinct definition has not been effectively realized, most of which are vague and lack clear meaning. However, it’s worth noting that an art is a diversified field that has different elements. To be precise, an art is a mere imagination that is primarily means to express an artist’s technical skills or creative imagination. An art is a subject of creatively whose major aim to derive appreciation. Well, as it is known, appreciation is a matter of ...

For an ordinary person a poem is just a literary work written with the help of rhyme and rhythm. But how do the poets see it? With the help of irony, style and tone Billy Collins, Marilyn Nelson, Ruth Forman, Gary Snyder, Bob Hicok and William Carlos Williams try to acquaint the reader with their own vision of poetry, because for them it is more than an art of rhythmical composition. In the poem Introduction to Poetry Billy Collins encourages the reader to treat every piece of poetry as a unique and precious thing. The poem is written in ...

Mid-Term Break is a lyric poem written by an outstanding Irish poet and playwright Samuel Heaney. The poem is autobiographical as it is written in the first person, so the narrator coincides with the author and is a participant of the described events. In his real life Samuel Heaney got over a death of his little brother that formed the basis of Mid-Term Break. The author seems to be reserved about his own feelings, that is why the poem is full of polysemantic words (with several meanings), symbols and contrasting situations that are aimed to to convey the feelings ...

Abstract

The phenomenon of apparent motion occurs when two stimuli are separated by a flash or a blank in which the brain creates the effect of movement. It can be compared to the effects of moving pictures, for example, in which a series of still photographs are put together in such a way that the image appears to be moving. The purpose of this research is to assess the phenomenon of apparent motion in terms of the interstimulus interval, the gap between two stimuli that most accurately conveys movement to the perceiver. The study used five different dot spacings, and ...

Introduction

Adolescence is a developmental period of individuals aged 13-19, which has its own peculiarities to distinguish between childhood and adulthood. Adolescents’ brain is not fully matured and is still subject to rapid development, which explains specific changes in youths’ reflecting and behavior. Spear (2013) supports this idea by claiming that “adolescent-typical ways of thinking and behaving appear in part neurobiologically based” (p. 11). In this regard youths’ social life relies on their perception of self-identity formed through family relations and peer networks in school and out of school. ...

Changing of mental functions (attention, memory, thinking) in late adulthood reflected in a reduction of their strength, volume and activity. One of the main changes is reduced speed of the physical and mental operations. It can be noticed in mental processes, such as reducing processing speed and increased time of reaction. In the aging process many of the functions of the visual system are disrupted, for example: a decrease in visual acuity, increased eye sensitivity threshold, deteriorating in adaptation to darkness, reduced ability of recovering after a bright flash of light, changes in colour perception, reduces of the eyesight. ...

There is an anecdote about Wittgenstein that seems to encapsulate his presence in the minds of 20th and 21st century theorists; Keynes was waiting for Wittgenstein to arrive and spoke to his companion, ‘God has arrived and on the afternoon train.’ It is hardly presumptive to say that theories of language, logic, and philosophy writ large have been forever changed by wittgenstein. However, the particularities of these changes are often confused and misrepresented. The irony then is how such confusion and misrepresentation demonstrate the work Wittgenstein was trying to accomplish in the first place: to assess how language constructs ...

A. The human cerebral cortex is divided into three main areas: sensory, motor and associated areas (Association Cortex, 2016). Sensory areas belong to the peripheral nervous system. They extend from the spinal cord to the receptor cells located in all parts of the body. The primary function of sensory area to carry impulses from the receptor cells to the brain for interpretation. These impulses can be those of sensations like touch, pain, smell, taste and sight. The motor area or the primary motor cortex is located in the interior part of the brain at the central sulcus. Its pyramidal ...

A. An anticholinergic is a drug used in the treatment of diseases such as asthma, muscular spasms, insomnia and gastrointestinal cramps (Healthline, 2016). The drug is also used with anesthetics as it inhibits the action of parasympathetic nerve impulses by preventing acetylcholine reaching the receptor cells of nerve impulses. This may lead to memory loss, confusion, drowsiness and even sedation. These effects are more pronounced in old-aged people. Loss of muscular strength and fainting is a symptom which could be seen in the patient. Use of anticholinergic drugs is not recommended for patients with conditions like glaucoma, hyperthyroidism, heart ...

Abstract

Given that the relationship between music education and mathematics education has been speculated for a long time, the study seeks to investigate whether music education has effect on mathematics education or not.

Introduction of Mental Lexicon

Mental lexicon denotes a collection of words in the mind of any individual. According to linguists, it is a part of one’s grammar that encloses all the information linked to the words and morphemes including morphological, phonological, semantic, and syntactic (Dell et al., 1997). Psycholinguists have observed that words are stocked up with its phonological as well as orthographic shapes. Language impaired individuals have been a good source of information about lexicon through analyzing their speech errors including malapropisms, paraphasias, and lexical decision tasks (Sripada, 2008). ...

Contiguity Principle

Even without a clear understanding of the contiguity principle, most people can see that there are important ways that continuity and contiguity affect learning. The human brain is a masterful machine, but as human beings, we have to be able and willing to set our brains up for success in the most effective ways possible. As human beings understand more about brains than ever before, there are more effective was that have been developed to assist people in the learning process. The contiguity principle presents learners and instructors alike with the ability to create unique connections in the brain: ...

Introduction

Newborns come into the world, fully possessing the ability to perceive the environmental signals and react to it. Babies can see and hear, smell and touch, feel pressure and pain. They can choose what to look at. They learn, although their abilities are limited. The first 2 years of development are characterized by astonishing speed and depth in comparison with changes in any other 2-year period of human life. There is an amazing transition from a deep ignorance about the surrounding objects, sounds and smells to gaining basic knowledge about objects and people, language and daily activities occur during ...
